Gear Review
Kristin Piccirillo
Because I, a girl who is not a big fan of accessorizing, needed to find a pair of sunglasses that would work all the time, while still being cute enough to be unique. I definitely was able to find this in the Vol.... They are dressy with the right amount of steez. Burly and durable while still being girly. Plus, the brown to green fade is just crazy enough to be siiiick. One last note, because they are slightly square-er, they work really well on slightly round-ed faces.

nice poem^^jamie
it almost made made me cry,but it is beautiful
I often think about that day
When it was boring and grey
There was something i did
That now just leaves me in pain.
I thought of him in that moment
The memory of us together
Promises that were made to each other
His are now given to another
She is so much better for him
Has always been there
But yet they fail to remember
How much i still care
Looking back on it now
I guess i should have known
That all the lies he would tell me
Would never be shown
So I go back to that tree
The one i sat under
Off to the side
That everyone sees
I look at my work
Wonder where i went wrong
Then slowly i lift my hand
To that spot
It's in the middle of the tree
For everyone to see
The love and care that went into
Each and every letter
There you will always be
Forever side by side with me
Cuz that's where i carved
You and me

Chevrolet Blazer GMC Jimmy Transmission Problems
cplpun1 Posts: 3there are a few things that could be wrong with your trans. it would be hard to "hip shoot" just from what you are describing. but a few questions come to mind. did you change the solenoids because of a trouble code or did you just replace them? what was the condition of the fluid the first time you dropped the pan? was there any material in the bottom of the pan? were to solenoids new or used? is your check engine light on? there are a few things that could cause a second gear start. it could be a stuck valve in the valve body, it could be caused by a t.p.s way out of whack [ telling the comp. that your throttle is open when its not] i would find a reputable trans shop instead of guessing on this one.
cplpun1 Posts: 3sounds like your 3/4 clutches are fried. hate to say it . chances are when they drop the pan theyre going to find a bunch of clutch material in the bottom of the pan. the only fix for that is to pull it and rebuild it. i know it sounds harsh, consider whether its worth holding onto. if its in good shape otherwise i'd say fix it. you should expect to spend around $1800 for the rebuild, but you'll get a warranty with it. may or may not be better than buying another vehicle. hope all goes well.
cplpun1 Posts: 3more trouble that its worth. you may or may not have to change the drive shafts because of length differences. then you will have to install a clutch pedal assembly under the dash which is a nightmare. then you will have to install the hydraulic master cylinder and line in the firewall. better to rebuild the one thats in it.
joesgarage Posts: 1I had all the same symptoms with the slow start and no first or fourth gear. The key wouldn't come out of the ignition so I knew when I read this I found my solution. This is my second one so taking it out was a breeze and orielly has a lifetime warranty, this time it was free. The first time the blazer would die while driving and stall out at lights. The last one lasted two years and since they pack so much control into one switch this model seems to chew them up. Thanks for the diagnosis, I fixed it on the first try!
ssheepwash Posts: 1I have a 97 blazer i put a new motor in it when i got it running the trans would shift hard i plugged it into the computer because the check engine light was on it was the throttle position sensor changed it and the trans shifted properly as soon as that was done , hope this helps.
97chevyblazer Posts: 1I bought a 97 chevy blazer, when i first got it the vehicle drove good, now i have a tranny problem, you have to put it into 1st gear to take off then it drives good, 2nd problem A/C and power windows stopped working, replaced all relays under hood and the three in the glove box. I don't know what to do anymore,
tony_7991 Posts: 5I have a 97 Chevy Blazer that has ran pretty good for the most part. The transmission has been fault free since I've owned it. The other day, I was in cruise control at 75 mph, and just like someone flipped a switch, there was no 3rd or 4th gear. Also the speedo crashed to 0 as soon as it happened. After I got pulled off the road, I ran it through the gears. It engaged perfectly into 1st and reverse. It didn't want to shift into 2nd very well, and 3rd and overdrive were not an option. After a few hours of sitting, I decided to try it again on a cool motor and transmission. Sure enough, everything worked like normal. Transmission fluid was fine (didn't smell burnt and levels were good). Could this be some kind of solenoid issue? Cost?
dgcaller Posts: 7The problem is not likely in the transmission but in the key switch, even if you get DTCs that indicate the solenoids. The transmission is electronically controlled. If the voltages to the solenoids are low or power is interrupted, the transmission exhibits all kinds of shift problems. The power to the solenoids is routed through the key switch, which has 6 contacts in it. If the contacts are dirty or worn, the voltage to the tranny is low and the solenoids do not work. My trans had some similar symptoms and when I replaced the key switch, they all went away instantly.
dgcaller Posts: 7The electric part of the key switch is a black plastic box about 1 x 1 x 1-1/2 inches and is lkocated in the steering column right behind the mechanical part of the key switch (where you put the key in). There is a multi-wire harness attached to the box that goes down the steering column and plugs into a connector at the bottom end of the steering column.
To replace the switch, you have to remove the lower part of the dashboard so you can get at the plug, and remove the plastic covers around the key switch. You need a really small star (not phillips) screwdriver to unscrew the screws that hold the switch in place. The plug on the harness has two screws that hold it into the connector. You have to unscrew them to unplug the plug.
The switch and harness cost from $108 to $130 depending on where you get it. If you get it from an auto parts store it's less expensive but they may have to order it. A chevy ddealer will have it but they charge more
Let me know if you have any questions.

duntov Posts: 133The ignition switch and harness assembly is part number GM- 26061329 or AC Delco D1498C . It is available at any Chevrolet dealership (probably a special order) or any auto parts retailer that sells a complete line of AC Delco parts. It costs $183.70 MSRP with a jobber price of $90.00 to $98.00
dgcaller Posts: 7Answering two messages at once.
1. Re the ignition switch causing other problems: Yes, probably. The center of a switch is a rotating plastic cam that opens and closes the six contacts in varioius combinations, depending whether the switch is in Acc, Off, Run, or Start. The harness contains ten or twelve wires, connecting two sides of the 6 contacts to several places in the electrical system. Depending on which contacts are worn or burned, you can have a variety of problems, such as cranking but not starting, engine shutting off at random times (both caused by the ignition contact) transmission shifting problems, etc. These are problems I have seen.
2, Regarding where the assembly can be purchased, in addition to a Chevy dealer, you can buy aftermarket versions of the switch from NAPA for about $130.00 or Karagen/O'Reilly for about $108.00. I don't know what the differences in quaility or durability are. Both NAPA and Kragen were special order (2 days).
A couple of additional notes.
1. Chevy sent out a notice to all it's dealers about 4 years ago, telling them that when customers reported transmission problems i this vehicle, to FIRST check the ignition switch. Most reported transmission problems were caused by the switch, not the transmission itself, even though the DTCs from the OBDII indicated failed solenoids in the valve body. There was nothing wrong with the solenoids. They simply were not getting power.
2. I've had my blazer since 1997 (14 years). I first had the ignition switch problems about three years ago when the car was 11 years old. I replaced it with a NAPA unit and then took the GM switch apart to find out what was wrong with it. Two of the contacts were badly burned, two were dirty, and two seemed to have no wear at all. I assume that the burned contacts were the ignition and transmission, because that is where the problems were. I have the service manuals and could check the circuits but have not done that. Incidentally, the NAPA unit failed about 18 months after installation. Then I got a unit from Kragen. No problems with it since I installed it.

dgcaller Posts: 7Sorry Tony, but I don't remember what the original problems were and I could not find your original messages in the past threads. Can you tell me again what the symptoms are?
Check the electrical connector at the transmission. The plug is on the drivers side of the transmission. Claen the area around the plug, then pull it out and plug it in again. You did not mention if the SES (Service Engine Soon / check engine) light is on. If it is, you can take it to a shop and have them check the DTCs and turn off the light. It will cost about $100.
I do this myself now with a laptop and a kit I bought that includes a connector that plugs into the OBDII connector on the car and a software app. Cost about $150, but has paid for itself several times over. -
tony_7991 Posts: 5Hey! The initial trouble started about 3 weeks ago. I was about 30 miles into a trip, and out of no where, I dropped D and OD and the speedo crashed to 0. 1st and 2nd still worked so I was able to limp it off the road. From P or N, it still shifted perfectly in to R or 1st. Transmission oil is full, and smells normal. After time to cool off, everything seems to work like normal. After replacing the ignition switch, I took it for a test drive, and problem came back. There actually was a check engine light on before, but after reconnecting the battery, it hasn't came back on...yet. I believe it was on before for an oxygen sensor.
anxiousone2001 Posts: 1Hi, my name is t.j. I just have a quick question to ask you about swapping out your tranny. I'm getting ready to do the same thing to my 95 jimmy. but what I was wounding is can you tell me what tools I will need to remove the tranny and put in another one? If possible can you email me directly at firstname.lastname@example.com I'm using my sisters facebook and email to log on to edmunds. Thanks. I hope you can help me. I'm going to a salvage yard to get the other tranny so I need to know what tools I'll need to take that one out and also taking the old tranny out. then I need to know what tools I'll need to put the other tranny in. and do I need anything like a transmission lift. I don't know if thats even a tool? anyway. thanks in advance. T.J.
dgcaller Posts: 7It's been a while since I've done this. As recall, you have to remove a small solenoid that mounts underneath the key cylinder. I think you can also just pull the shaft in the center of the solenoid downward to unock the wheel instead of removing the solenoid. I'll check my service manuals and get back to you in a day or so.
emse82 Posts: 1Hi! I recently purchased a 1996 Chevy Blazer 4 by 4. When driving, the "Check Engine" light comes on and I noticed my transmission slipping. My car has to reach a couple thousand to three thousand RPM's to finally start moving. Just by happenstance, my battery died on the car. When I jumped it, my check engine light was off and my car shifted and drove fine. After about 10 minutes of driving, the "Check Engine" light came backon and the transmission started slipping again. Thoughts? Thanks!!!
malibu71 Posts: 1To everyone having a problem with gm automatic trannies that must be manually shifted to low gear. The first place to look is the fuse panel. There is a 10 amp fuse marked trans. If this fuse is bad, the transmission will not return to low gear after coming to a full stop. It will start in second gear and acceleration will be very sluggish. Replace the fuse with a higher amperage fuse. The engine must be restarted for the transmission function to return to normal. If the fuse appears to be good, check the neutral safety switch mounted on the side of the transmission.

Gary Ashton
The Ashton Real Estate Group of RE/MAX Elite
Gary Ashton Bio
Gary Ashton acquired his real estate license in March 2001 and has had a rapid rise to become the number one realtor for Nashville.com, one of the top 1% of realtors in the Nashville area, the number 1 team leader with RE/MAX Elite in Tennessee and #3 in the USA, and has recently been featured in the "Who's Who in Nashville"
In addition, Gary is the official real estate agent for the Tennessee Titans, is exclusively endorsed by Barbara Corcoran of Shark Tank, and has been featured as the team leader for the top 50 real estate teams in the entire USA.
England to the States
Born in England, Gary spent most of his time pursuing a musical career, first playing drums with the Leeds Middle Schools Orchestra, then the Yeadon Town brass band, and then moving more towards the rock and pop bands. This eventually led to playing in a local Leeds rock/pop band called Officer Dibble.
At the time Gary was working at an advertising agency and had clients who were selling cars or homes. This was to come in useful later! As the local success of the band grew, the attention of the music business came to them. The band was signed by Chris De Burgh's management and as a result the band subsequently opened for Chris De Burgh and Tears for Fears.
His family owned two bed and breakfast hotels, and after leaving the band, Gary helped with the family business. Eventually the hotels were sold and the family emigrated to Clearwater Beach, Florida, where they operated a motel for 10 years.
When developers began approaching the Ashton's and other local hotel owners, Gary put together a team to handle the negotiations. This was his introduction to the world of real estate, and although the deal fell through, the decision to sell and move to Nashville was made.
In October 2000, Gary came to Nashville to once again pursue a musical career
From Florida to Tennessee
In 2001, Gary obtained his real estate license and became an agent at Crye-Leike in Hendersonville. It seemed the best of both worlds – part time Realtor, part time musician. However, it soon became clear that music didn't pay the bills and real estate did!
From Part Time to Full Time
Gary eventually became a buyers' agent for Steve Shrum, one of the top agents at Crye-Leike and one of the few agents in Hendersonville who actually had a website up and running. Gary's background in advertising had been useful in developing a website for the hotel, and so he applied this knowledge in an effort to enhance the lead generation from Steve's web site
When Gary began applying the principals he had learned from Steve and ideas he generated from working on the web site, he decided it was time to move out on his own. In 2004, he was asked to join a local real estate group, Bob Parks, making him the Number 1 agent for Sumner County. Then within 6 weeks, he was approached by the owners of Nashville.com to become the exclusive agent for the real estate section. It then became obvious that he would need the branding of a nationally known company, and RE/MAX was the only choice for Gary's concept and business model.
As the number of leads generated through Nashville swamped Gary, he took on buyers agents to help with the over flow. During the past 10 years he has continued to refine and enhance the lead generation process creating, on average, 35 inquiries a day.
Over the next couple of years, Gary refined the lead distribution process and with the help of Morgan Carey at Real Estate Webmasters, they constantly developed and improved the whole lead nurturing and follow up process. The development continues to this day in the ever changing world of online real estate lead generation.
In 2007 Gary made "Top 3" Realtors in sales and earnings for the RE/MAX Elite group of over 400 Nashville area realtors. He is also was the number one agent for the Nashville Real Estate Team since 2004.
This was a banner year for Gary and his team, notably the first time Gary was recognised for his sales achievments by being honored by RE/MAX as a member of the "Chairmans Club"
As the country started to see the effects of some questionable loan practises that seemed to have reverberations for credit institutions around the world, the market in Nashville was also taking a hit. Sales were down but Gary's team was stilled recognised as being the top team with RE/MAX Elite in Nashville TN
Again a trying time for real estate sales in the US but with every cloud there is a silver lining. The collapse of the real estate market actually created an environment for some amazing deals and the strong positioning of Gary's team online meant that 2008 was still a successful year for the team.
The downturn in home sales also was seen by Gary as a team to regroup and to focus his attention on redesigning the website in conjunction with Morgan Carey of Real Estate Webmasters and his design team.
The release of the new website has been met with numerous comments of approval but the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Since the new site was released the number of registrations has nearly tripled and as a result 2010 was a banner year for Gary and TAREG.
2011 -13
Much has happened in the years 2011 to 13 as the
Real Estate and the Internet
Gary has taken advantage of the Internet as a way of reaching home buyers who are actively using the Web to find out more information about the Nashville area, and homes and properties that are available through the Middle Tennessee Regional Multiple Listing Service (MTRMLS).
If you have ever had any contact with Gary, you'll probably recognize this image as being very representative of just about every hour of his working day!
Gary Ashton in a familiar pose :)
In keeping with Gary's interest with real estate, architecture and the visual aspect of the internet this developed in to a photography hobby where Gary has managed to blend the interests in travel and photography. Gary has actually won a couple of photography awards working with the Ujena swim wear company based in California.

Perth International Arts Festival
The Perth International Arts Festival is Australia's longest running cultural festival, held annually in Western Australia between February–March. The program features contemporary and classical music, dance, theatre, opera, visual arts, large-scale public works, Lotterywest Film Festival and the Perth Writers Festival. The festival runs every year from February–March, the Lotterywest Film Festival runs from November–April, and the Perth Writers Festival occurs in February. The current artistic director is Jonathan Holloway (2012–2015).
The festival was created in 1953 by the University of Western Australia, making it the oldest international arts festival in Australia,[1] and the oldest annual international multi-arts festival in the southern hemisphere [2] Activities include theatre, dance, music, film, visual arts and literature, occurring right across the state.[3] Artists from around the world have participated in the Festival including the Israeli born clarinetist Chen Halevi.
The Festival was founded by and has operated from The University of Western Australia Nedlands campus since 1953. The University of Western Australia further supports the Festival through the provision of services and resources. Lotterywest has supported the Festival financially since 1992.
The festival also relies on corporate sponsors and partnerships for funding, with new organisations becoming involved each year.[4]
Corporate Partners[edit]
The array of corporate partners changes each year, however some partners have committed to long term sponsorship of the festival. The partners are separated into six distinct groups:
- Partners
- Leadership partners
- Major Partners
- Public Funding Partners
- Trusts
- International Partners
Significant long term partners include Rio Tinto, Lotterywest and Wesfarmers [5]
2012 Festival[edit]
The 2012 festival was the 60th Perth International Arts Festival.[6] This year attracted 194, 522 paid audience members and a total attendance figure of over 700, 000.[7] The opening of the festival featured a 'DAWN:DUSK' opening, where hundreds of people gathered on Cottesloe Beach to watch vocalists and musicians.[8] During this year, the festival was held from February 10 - March 4, and was the first year led by new artistic director, Jonothan Holloway.[9]
A number of events sold out during this year's festival, including tickets to Bon Iver.[10]
2013 Festival[edit]
The 2013 festival was held from February 8- March 2. With 750 artists, 820 events and 250 film screenings, it is the biggest yet.[11]
This year marked the announcement of a new significant partner, Chevron Corporation. This partnership was recognised through the renaming of the Festival Gardens to Chevron Festival Gardens.[12]
At the 2012/2013 Lotterywest Film Festival, 26 films were screened, with the winner of the BHP Billiton audience award being 'The First Grader', a short film directed by Justin Chadwick.[13] The film reflects the true story of 84-year-old liberation fighter Maruge who, when the Kenyan Government offers free universal education, arrives at a primary school eager to learn.[14]
This year also featured sold out event, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, who played at the Chevron City Gardens.

Thanks, no flash used though, just my digital camera using available light and a little tweaking with my photo program on a few of the pictures. |
Wow, these are very cool pictures! I wonder if my digital will do the same? I'll have to try. Thanks for the inspiration. |

When customers enter the new Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse concept store, one thing that's noticeably different is the lack of towering shelves.
"We wanted our customers to feel closer to the products," said Sylvain Prud'homme, the president of Lowe's Canada and a Burlingtonian.
"Through our customer feedback, they all wanted to be able to touch and feel the product and see the quality."
The aisles are also more spacious; the seasonal area is twice as large as its counterparts in regular stores and it provides easy access to items on the floor.
The new $20 million store located at 3270 Harrison Cres is slated to open Feb. 6, but the Post got a sneak peek at the new 117,000 square foot concept store that was designed with the customer in mind. The new customer experience store is the second to open in Canada and the first Lowe's Improvement Warehouse to open in Burlington.
Its main focus areas were convenience in terms of having a complete shopping experience with merchandising items together, ease in reference to the new signage the store will have to locate products, providing inspiration for its customers through more showrooms and instilling confidence, through Lowe's first Build-It-Yourself Learning Centre.
"These aren't seminars and they're not free. You're going to learn from tradesmen and accredited teachers who do this for a living," said Jim Caruk, the founder of BiY and host of HGTV's Real Renos and Builder Boss.
"Being in the business for 40 years, hearing my clients say they wish they could do it themselves instead of hiring a contractor, this is that next step. You're going to walk out of here with the right skills."
The classes are taught by tradesmen from Contestoga College and range from $189 for a six-hour course to $589 for a 24-hour course and will teach DIYers everything from how to change a toilet to drywall to framing to electrical work.
"At least it gives you the understanding as to what you're getting yourself into and we save you some money, too," said Caruk.
According to Prud'homme, Burlington is the perfect location for the new concept store.
"It has the best customer profile we have in all the markets we're in and the timing of the construction made sense for us," said Prud'homme.
He says there's also the perfect balance of new and older homes in the area, which go through different phases of renovations and construction.
The store will create approximately 145 jobs plus 40-50 seasonal positions. Prud'homme says employees have completed 14,000 hours of training to better help the customer.
"We want to make sure we're trained properly to help our customers. These projects they're doing are expensive and customers need expertise," said Prud'homme.
"Overall, I think Burlington will like the new store. It's open and bright and we have a great assortment of items."

The Great Miami Lakes Historical Scavenger HuntKatherine DuarteSaturday, March 2, 2013 at 10:00 AM (EST) |
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
The Great ML Historical Scavenger Hunt will take place on Saturday, March 2nd, 2013, at the paking lot right behind Shula's Hotel on Main Street in Miami Lakes. The grade level for the participants is Kindergarten through 8th grade.
The first participant from each category to finish The Hunt by turning in a completed map; which means that their map will have a stamp from each station they discovered, will receive a grand prize. All participants must register on this website before the day of The Hunt. So, talk to your parents, and if you will be participating have them register you (free of charge) here as soon as posssible. I will reserve a map for you when I get your registration information. Participant slots are limited; so don't put off your registration.
Make sure you keep your latest report card handy because you will need to bring it the day of The Hunt as proof of your grade level. No exceptions. Please come dressed in black and/or white.
Now, you have lots of work to do before The Hunt. I suggest you start by reading any historical information that is published in The Miami Laker in the coming months, talking to your family, friends, teachers and anyone that knows about the history of Miami Lakes so you can learn about the history of our town and have a good chance at winning the day of The Hunt.
Good luck!

NEW YORK — The New York Mets and injured closer Bobby Parnell have avoided arbitration and agreed on a one-year, $3.7 million contract, the same salary while he was sidelined for nearly all of last season.
The team announced the deal Wednesday. The contract includes a $50,000 bonus if Parnell makes 60 appearances in 2015.
The 30-year-old right-hander blew a save on opening day last season and had elbow-reconstruction surgery a week later. Parnell is 18-24 with 36 saves — 22 in 2013 — and a 3.57 ERA in 299 games, eight starts. He will likely begin the season on the disabled list.
Parnell can become a free agent after this season.
The Mets' remaining arbitration-eligible players are pitchers Dillon Gee and Jenrry Mejia, second baseman Daniel Murphy, first baseman Lucas Duda and shortstop Ruben Tejada.

Renato found Evelyn at Central Station and brought her back to the apartment. She was a pleasant, little sparkplug, Czech girl in need of a place to stay for a few days. She knew the deal and was eager to introduce us to Bruce, her dildo. Yeah, she named it Bruce. He got a fucking workout in her pussy, though. She made herself cum, then this energetic little lady showed us how flexible she was. Holy shit!

A World Book Day 2012 Quick Read.
This brilliant comic thriller will have you on the edge of your seat.
Comparison: Sharon Penman, Alex Rutherford, Douglas JacksonFor more see our Author 'Like for Like' recommendation system
Albert Rossi has many qualities. He's a man who can spot polyester at a hundred paces. He's the person you'd have on speed dial were you to find yourself at the centre of a tailoring emergency. He has an excellent working knowledge of Bonnie Tyler's back catalogue. These skills are essential to a Gentleman's Outfitter from Eastcote. They are not necessarily on the job description for recruiting an assassin.
When Albert hits an unsuspecting pedestrian whilst listening to 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' in his Nissan Micra he is amazed to escape the inevitable knock on the door from the police. Instead he receives a mysterious phone call from a man who sounds surprisingly like Stephen Hawking telling him that his money will be left in the 'usual' place. At that very moment, Albert Rossi decides to change careers.
Albert Rossi's life is about to get a whole lot more interesting!
Praise for Conn Iggulden's books:

Conn Iggulden is one of the most successful authors of historical fiction writing today. Following Stormbird, the Sunday Times bestseller, Trinity is the second book in his superb new series set during the Wars of the Roses, a remarkable period of British history. His previous two series, on Julius Caesar and on the Mongol Khans of Central Asia, describe the founding of the greatest empires of their day and were number one bestsellers. Conn Iggulden lives in Hertfordshire with his wife and children.

I have a Bartzella, 4 bloom seasons old. In spite of the very abnormal weather, it has been beautiful, and blooms later than the rest of my peonies. Now I'm wondering if it needs to be dug and divided. the stems are packed together. also I don't know how much fertilizer to give it. It hasn't been fertilized since I dug the planting hole.I have heard itoh's need digging every 3 to 4 years, is this true? |

Sorry Flowergirl, I've been watching for an answer to your question, too. My Itohs are blooming for the 1st time this year, hopefully someone who's had Itohs for a while will notice the post..... They're supposed to be very easy to propagate so I'm sure you'd do no harm by splitting it but if you get the pieces too small you probably won't get blooms next year. I think I'd carefully remove the dirt from the surface of the roots and see how many eyes I could see. If enough to divide and still have large divisions I'd go for it. If you do, don't throw away any bits of root that break off. Plant them horizontally 1/2 - 1 inch deep, you could get new plants from the bits of root, too. I have a tiny bit of Scarlet Heaven in a pot with new leaves right now, there was no eye on it. I'll probably sink the pot in the ground this fall and not plant it out until next fall, just to give it more time to develop more roots. As for fertilizer, I've never put anything out other than just general, slow release for flowers over the entire bed. If your soil is amended you're probably fine to just add to the new planting holes when you divide. Good luck with your Bartzilla! |

Well Thanks for answering this post, I was beginning to wonder if anyone would. Was hoping for one of the experts on here to tell me what to do. As prolific as this one seems, you would think the price would go down. do you think I should dig in the fall like the others? |
- Posted by LizinElizabeth 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Jun 17, 13 at 22:58
That's what I plan to do. Did you see that post about stem propagating Itohs? Sounds like a safe way to make some new shrubs..... |
- Posted by graycrna4u 10 (My Page) on Fri, Dec 27, 13 at 21:05
Itoh's are generally very hearty. If you think the plant needs to be divided, dig it up, wash the root ball off with a water hose (after the fall dormancy), and divide it into 3 to 5 eye divisions. You will have blooms in the next spring. I bought four Itoh's last spring from a local nursery that were all big enough to be divided into 3 to 4 plants each. That is 16 itoh's for the price of four plants. Good luck. |

NMSU hosts Wells Fargo Academic Honors Night
Las Cruces, NM — At halftime of the men's basketball game against Bakersfield on January 30, the New Mexico State Athletics Department will celebrate Wells Fargo Academic Honors Night. This year, NM State will honor 335 student-athletes. These student-athletes either have a 3.00 cumulative GPA or earned a 3.00 semester GPA Spring 2013 and or Fall 2013 and have a minimum of a 2.75 cumulative GPA. Game time is set for 7 p.m., in the Pan American Center.
The fall 2013 semester was the 17th consecutive semester that all 17 men's and women's athletic teams have a combined cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better. The cumulative GPA for all men's and women's teams after the fall 2013 semester was a 3.143.
"The Wells Fargo Academic Honor Night gives the Academic Support Program & Services Center staff great pleasure because it provides us an opportunity to celebrate the great academic accomplishments of our student-athletes," said James Hall, Associate Athletic Director for Student Development/Sports Administrator. "They are so dedicated to their educational and athletic endeavors and it's great that we get to showcase their achievements to the university and Las Cruces community."
The NM State athletic department is proud of its 13 student-athletes who have maintained a 4.0 cumulative GPA throughout their career. However, there were a total of 33 student-athletes who earned a 4.0 during the 2013 fall semester.
After the 2013 fall semester, 66 percent of NM State's student-athletes carry a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher. A total of 276 student-athletes representing all 17 varsity sports earned a 3.0 or better during the 2013 fall semester.
Twenty-five student-athletes took part in fall 2013 commencement ceremonies Saturday, December 14th and are now proud Alumni of NM State!!! The 25 graduates exemplify the outstanding academic accomplishments by the student-athletes as their cumulative grade point averages together were slightly above a 3.00. Their discipline of study ranged from Criminal Justice, Chemical Engineering, Marketing, Community Health, Management, Hotel Restaurant Management, Education, History and Biology.
In fact, 70% of total student-athlete population graduates from NMSU (cohort 2002-2005).
In addition, Alex Newman (Softball) was selected as NMSU's Female Scholar Athlete for Fall 2013 Commencement and Ryan Beck (Baseball) was selected as NMSU's Male Scholar Athlete for Fall 2013.

I was looking at a lancer ralliart. I like them better than the subaru's. Prefer ralliart to WRX and Evo to STI.
With the Legacy I am going a bit more for comfort over performance. The legacy has 9hp less than the wrx. It also has an auto whereas an auto in a WRX would be a sin?
I test drove a 2013 WRX and it really seems like Subaru went cheap on the interior. It was worse than the interior on my 2009. Performance doesn't need to go without simple interior refinements.
Seriously, check out a Lance before you buy a WRX. I think you will like it and you can get a pretty good deal on one. The lancer was a lot more balanced when sideways than the wrx. (Spirited test drives car salesmen had confidence in me ) Also, the paddle shifters with the nice dual clutch auto seemed more user friendly than the outdated 5 speed in the WRX.
Better yet, get a used s4.

However even if I can, ill probably just be stubborn and get a sti lol
Yeah, Evo is pricey. Although, a used evo is nicer than a new WRX.
Ralliart is priced in line with the WRX. Just got quoted $24,900 for a new ralliart, which is cheaper than the WRX. Plus the ralliart is nicer
Test drive it and see what you think.

We would like to do an overhaul for my 8 year old son's room. He's had some ideas....but I didn't want to do something that he would outgrow in a year....so we finally came to an agreement. We'll use the two colors of his favorite NFL team, of which he has been a diehard fan for years already! As far as decorations to match, he already has more than he knows what to do with, that's for sure...
His bedroom (about 12x12) is located in a corner of our house, so there are two windows... at first I had considered alternating walls of each color...then I had considered having the two walls with windows one color, and the other two another. Or, just having all the walls one color...and perhaps painting some of the furniture in there (shelves, etc) the other color. What would you suggest? It's sure hard for me to picture without seeing it....and I just don't know how much would be TOO much, you know? (We are in WI, and are Packer fans....so green and gold are the colors...) Thanks

There's a great page that will help you decide the color combinations and what shades to use. Also, make sure you get testers and try them on the walls in small patches first. With the amount of natural light pouring in, you have to make sure that the color is to your liking at different times of day or night...good luck! justin |

Operation Family Caregiver
Operation Family Caregiver (OFC) is a free and confidential program for adult family members or friends caring for a military service member or post-9/11 veteran with visible or invisible (post-traumatic stress or traumatic brain) injuries or adjustment concerns. One of our coaches meets 1:1 with the same caregiver in a place of the caregiver's choosing (including via Skype and/or phone when not near us or that's what a caregiver prefers). The program is evidence-based with statistically significant improvements of caregiver depression and health status, as well as reduction of children's anxiety. Our coach meets with the caregiver four times over 4 – 6 months to support positive solutions to problems the caregiver identifies. In between each meeting a phone calls is made to the caregiver. The emphasis is on the FOCUS acronym, which expands to: Facts, Optimism, Creativity, Understanding, and Solve. OFC is not psychotherapy, though coaches may help clients identify concerns they can share with their therapists.

That it was not enough for Davies' college roommate to know that their classmate had been murdered by an intruder to understand Davies' fears [of walking home alone from work late at night] honestly terrifies me. That a woman had to get attacked right in front of him in order for that to sink in is horrifying. And as Davies points out, he was not some anomaly. This is common....read more
PUAs and MRAs respond to the Santa Barbara killings
Well hello again! Yes I am still here, although MIA for the past month or so as I wrapped up my freelance life and started at Cosmopolitan.com full time. And I'm writing a lot over there: On illegal abortion in Brazil, on pro-choice advocates embracing life, on the minimum wage, on the increasing inaccessibility of abortion in the American South, on the kidnapped Nigerian girls. I'm also doing a series of interviews with women who have interesting careers, detailing how they got to where they are. So far I've spoken with Jordan Zimmerman, a cheese educator; Anna Holmes, a journalist and the founder of Jezebel; and Sadie Nardini, a yoga instructor who was paralyzed as a child and now runs a massive international wellness empire. The latest: On PUA and MRA responses to the misogynist murders in Santa Barbara. Here is one of those things:

I'm in Brazil right now with the wonderful International Reporting Project, and while here I spoke with a young woman who, like many women around the world, got pregnant when she didn't want to be. Here in Brazil, abortion is generally illegal. After trying several different methods unsuccessfully and reaching out to a variety of slightly-shady people for help, she decided to go the safest route: To say she had been raped and get a safe, legal abortion in a Brazilian hospital. Her story is here. Women in this country are understandably very afraid to speak with anyone about abortion, and lots of women die or are injured from unsafe procedures. I'm particularly grateful to this young woman, who I'm calling Juliana, for her generosity, her honesty and her courage in sharing an extremely complicated story.

The largest building project ever undertaken at the University of Maine at Orono, the LEED Silver-certified Student Recreation Center features a three-court gymnasium, fitness center, natatorium, suspended walking / jogging track and support spaces. The contemporary building fits seamlessly into its heavily wooded site and incorporates sustainable building materials and systems including heat-recovery systems and recyclable materials. Two double-height skylighted galleries, one north-south and one east-west, form the primary circulation.
Inside, exposed wood structures and wood panelling evoke a natural, organic ambiance. Extensive use of glass on the south façade presents views of the activities within and provides users with views out to the scenic campus. The building's exterior material palette of architectural precast concrete panels, copper metal clad panels, field stone and glass walls harmonises with the natural setting.
The center is home to 13,000 intramural sports participants annually and, with over 1,500 daily visits, it has become a mainstay of campus activity. Students, faculty staff and local community members use the facility and more than 125,000 visitors have walked through its doors since its October 2007 opening. In addition to its recreational uses, the facility has become home to numerous university events, meetings, career fairs, new student recruitment open houses and community events. This project has won national awards from several athletic and design associations.

Bottom lip is permanently chapped, and it takes a lot of self control to keep from picking at the peeling skin thereof. Balms and oils only make it worse.

How To Buy Oil
If you want to get in on the oil boom, then you need to know how to buy oil. The price of oil naturally fluctuates based on season and market conditions, but according to the report from the Paris-based International Energy Agency, long-term supply and demand looks very favorable on oil. Luckily, buying oil is not just for seasoned traders; it can be as easy as following these very simple steps.
- Pick your type of investment. There are many ways for you to buy oil and profit from it, but it is your first job to choose what method you want to use. The methods of buying oil vary and come with different degrees of risk. They range from direct investment as a commodity to indirect investment as an equity to an oil company.
- Buy oil directly. You can buy oil futures and/or oil future options directly. Buying oil futures and future options involves a great deal of risk, because they are extremely volatile. You need to do a lot of research before using this method. This method is designed for seasoned traders.
- Buy oil indirectly. You can buy oil indirectly by buying equities of some oil companies, such as BP, Exxon Mobile and Shell. The shares of these companies tend to fluctuate with oil prices, as they are profiting from it.
- Consider alternative methods. There are many other methods you can use to buy oil. Before making your decision, you should also consider commodity-based exchange-traded funds, such as the U.S. Oil Fund (USO). It trades like a stock, so you can buy a share of it on the open market. Oil-based mutual funds may also be a good choice, but you may need substantial capital to invest in them.
Don't restrict yourself into limited areas; there are many ways you can buy oil, so keep a open mind at all times. Remember, the commodities sector is highly volatile; invest with great caution.

It's finally out in the open.
A new computer-driven, geographically-based (allegedly) schedule was unveiled in an effort to curb costs and cut down on a couple championships led to some glitches, on-the-fly changes and a delay so scampering schools could cross a "T" or dot an "I."
Schools were free to publicize its 2011 football schedule at any time during the past three months, but a few were still making changes and scuffling with logistical issues.
The long-winded process is over. They became permanent on Friday, and in response, Varsity Xtra takes a crack at de-coding our July version of a Dynamite Dozen: Twelve explosive East Valley matchups we found for competitive and other compelling reasons.
Don't worry: There's no doubt dozens more will belong here between now and Thanksgiving weekend.
Click here to see football schedules for all East Valley schools
Aug. 20: Chaparral vs. Bishop Gorman (at University of Phoenix Stadium)
Only two East Valley games are slated for the opening weekend of Aug. 19 and 20 — Desert Vista vs. Maryvale is the other — but this is a big one. Like last year, Chaparral is in the conversation right next to Hamilton as the best team in the state. The Huskies played Bishop Gorman to kick off 2010, winning a 24-17 game at the NAU Walkup Skydome in Flagstaff, and Chaparral would like to follow suit. With quarterback Connor Brewer and wide receiver/cornerback Davonte Neal returning, Chaparral's offense should be explosive. The defense lost a lot, but transfer additions Jarvis Lewis and Dylan Cozens should help soften the blow. Bishop Gorman won the Nevada 4A championship last year and will be a great test for Chaparral.
Aug. 26: Mountain Pointe at Hamilton
Hamilton is the state standard. Four state titles in five years will do that. A .908 winning percentage in the 13-year history of the program only deepens the evidence. Mountain Pointe has such aspirations. Two straight semifinal appearances under Norris Vaughan have the Pride in the vicinity. Getting a win against Hamilton would only further Mountain Pointe's pursuit and when they face each other again after the Huskies knocked Mountain Pointe out of the postseason in 2010, it will be a battle. Make it the first game of the season for both teams and it gives a full summer of workouts and hype for the Pride to focus on leading into the game. Hamilton gets similar treatment regardless of when it appears on an opponent's schedule, but for 40 consecutive games, it hasn't mattered to the Huskies. Either way, it is a great early-season game between what should be two preseason top-five teams.
Sept. 1: Tempe Prep at Valley Christian
The Knights had already turned heads in then-Class 2A by playing a traditional power in Phoenix Northwest Christian tough (28-14 loss) and punishing another in Scottsdale Christian (35-13), but this mid-October matchup in 2010 proved Tempe Prep was for real. A 25-0 win against the defending-2A champions home field was the first time the Trojans were shutout since 2003. The Knights reached the 2A semifinals before falling in a nail-biter, while an atypical "down" season for Valley Christian under first-year coach Kevin Allen won't repeat itself. Both will be good again.
Sept. 2: Chaparral at Marcos de Niza
The Firebirds knocked off Marcos de Niza for the 2009 5A-II state title, and the rivalry intensified this summer during a scuffle in a 7-on-7 passing league tournament. The Padres return quarterback Tommy Thornton and have a plethora of athletes, but will be the underdogs in this one. Chaparral wants to make an early proclamation as the unquestioned team to beat in Division II, while Marcos would like to show that the gulf between the Firebirds and the Padres is not as wide as people think.
Sept. 9: Desert Vista at Mountain Pointe
The 15th edition of the Ahwatukee Bowl might be a doozy. For the first time both programs are coming off of state semifinal berths and both teams return plenty of experience on both sides of the ball. The Thunder leads the series overall at 9-5 although Mountain Pointe won last season at home, 20-17. The bad blood has flowed for years and it might be as intense today as it has ever been, spurred by a few players from Desert Vista who moved over to Knox Road since the end of last season. Hopefully, this year communication for the after-game exit strategy is better as the Thunder and Pride both left through the same gate at Karl Kiefer Stadium. Nothing happened, but in a rivalry like this it doesn't take much to go sideways in a hurry.
Sept. 9: Mesquite at Chandler
Two programs in a transition time of sorts, except neither figures to go through the tough times often associated with large-scale changes. Chandler is now led by Shaun Aguano, Mesquite has Matt Gracey. The Wolves' offense has been as prolific as any the past couple years, but QB Bretty Hundley is now at UCLA, and the Wolves will get a big test of their mettle against a program known for solid, physical defense. Conversely, the Wildcats will feature RB Anthony Lopez and what should be an effective passing game. Chandler always has athletes and this year is no exception. Can they make the most of them and prevent the Wildcats from going wild?
Sept. 16: Hamilton at Desert Ridge
The Jaguars made a surprising run to the 5A Division I championship game last season, and gave Hamilton quite the scare. Desert Ridge had the ball late in a one-possession game but fell short in a 21-13 loss. Hamilton is still the heavy favorite in Division I heading into this season, but Desert Ridge brings back several of the key players that helped the team on its magical late season run. Jordan Becerra and Parker Rasmussen could both see time at quarterback, and bulldozing running back Joey Counts returns in the backfield. Hamilton once again has to reload, but has multiple Division I athletes restocking the starting lineup. Hamilton faces off with many top teams in 5A-I during the regular season, and this will be one of those tests to see if anyone can knock off the Huskies.
Sept. 16: Chandler at Basha
Eight miles apart yet so far away. To the best of our knowledge, these two schools have never played each other since Basha opened nearly a decade ago. Not in the regular season. Not in the postseason. The new scheduling alignment fixed that, so a bunch of kids who know each other (and perhaps open enrolled at one school or the other from the same neighborhoods) will duke it out in a matchup of Division I elite. Between this matchup and the Hamilton-Desert Ridge game, expect most of the city of Chandler to be at a high school football game.
Sept. 30: Brophy at Mountain Pointe
A Brophy squad with its fourth-string QB, depleted by injuries at a variety of positions and was barely .500 was perhaps one missed field goal against Mountain Pointe away from being in the 5A Division I semifinals. This time, Brophy enters with a healthy and talented junior QB in Tyler Bruggman, not to menton experienced speedsters like Devon Allen and Fred Gammage, Robert Reif and a group of underclassmen with as much potential as any in the Scooter Molander era (if not beyond). As for Mountain Pointe, well, the Pride have lost four games since Norris Vaughan took over two years ago, and that number isn't going to rise significantly in 2011.
Oct. 6: Red Mountain at Mountain View
Once part of the big-time, three-way intra-city rivalry with Mesa, the Lions and Toros haven't met each other since 2008, thanks to scheduling quirks and (somehow) being put in different regions during the previous two-year block. But that's in the past, and both these schools hold firm belief each is on the way up again. The Lions probably won't see a lot resembling previous Mountain View teams with Chad DeGrenier replacing Tom Joseph. Then again, the Toros have been a scrappy, undersized, disciplined bunch regardless of their coach. Ron Wisniewski's second season at Red Mountain is counting on growth and improved speed this year. We're counting on this game being a typical old-time rivalry played with a new style.
Oct. 28: Saguaro at Chaparral
One of the state's most entertaining rivalries is back, but it remains to be seen if the product on the field can match the war of words off it. Saguaro coach John Sanders and Chaparral coach Charlie Ragle have bantered for years, and it's been the Sabercats who have done the damage on the field, winning all four contests between the teams since both coaches took over in 2007, the last coming in the 2008 4A-I championship game. This season, though, that script should flip. While Saguaro could challenge for the Division III crown behind star athlete D.J. Foster, Chaparral is deeper, more talented and will be the favorite to snap the losing streak. No key players on either side have participated in the rivalry, but there's always bulletin board material here. It will be interesting to see if the hype will reach the same fervor it did a few years ago.
Oct. 28: Queen Creek at Williams Field
Steve Campbell has turned the Black Hawks into a top program in just two years at the varsity level, as Williams Field made the state championship game in 4A Division II last season and is looking like a contender again this season. Joe Germaine took over last year at Queen Creek and led the Bulldogs to the 4A Division I semifinals. These are two of the top lower division teams in the East Valley, and this is a rivalry that could heat up in the next few seasons. Williams Field running back Alex Howard will be the marquee attraction, and Queen Creek will need to slow him down in order to hang with the Black Hawks.
